What year does this take place in??
Since it was made in 1984, it's obviously before then. I thought read somewhere that it took place in the 60's. Maybe??
shareThe murder took place on March 9, 1977. Francine Hughes had a 14-year history of abuse with this man. The movie, of course, came out in 1984.
The most important events on chronologically arranged in this movie from around the Spring of 1963 to the fall of 1977, which was Francine's trial.
